The Israeli Association for Artificial Intelligence was established to promote Artificial Intelligence research in Israel and to strengthen cooperation between individuals and organizations involved in Artificial Intelligence research and applications. The association maintains a collection of links to researchers and organizations who are involved in AI. The association also organizes half-day meetings 2-3 times a year.
The Israeli Association for Artificial Intelligence (IAAI) will hold a Symposium on November 12, 2008, at Ashkelon Academic College.
